(New York City - May 28, 2008)
Hit The Ground Running: A Manual for New Leaders, will be the title of Jason Jennings new book from Portfolio, the business imprint of Penguin Putnam Publishing.
The book profiles and reveals the tactics and strategies of the ten American CEO's who've created the greatest amount of economic value since the year 2000. Companies and CEO's profiled include: JM Smucker, Harris Corporation, Mohawk, Humana, Goodrich, American Eagle Outfitters, Hanover Insurance, Allegheny Technologies, Staples and Questar. Jason and his research team spent nearly two years identifying the companies and interviewing their CEO's. Jason says that as they studied the CEO's and companies three things became obvious:
|
|
| • |
All of the CEOs produced results fast.
They didn’t dawdle around for an eternity before making things happen. They truly hit the ground running. |
| • |
Each is guided by rules that defy conventional thinking.
While they were able to diagnose underperformance quickly, stop any bleeding, build a plan, get buy-in and implement needed changes fast – their rules were different than those we’ve been told are the best practices of an aggressive, tough-minded, high achieving executive. |
| • |
They make everyone proud.
What each CEO did and the rules they used to do it were right for investors, right for employees, right for the community, right for the short run and right for the long run. They didn’t need any spin or any "the ends justify the means" rationalizations. |
|
|
Jason promises that the book contains all the golden rules for hitting the ground running. It's scheduled for release in the late fall of 2008.
Like Jason's previous best-selling books on business and leadership this book is jammed with hundreds of practical takeaway tips and advice on the right ways to grow and build an enduring business.
Jason is already beginning to use the discoveries he and his team made into his in-demand keynote speech, The Four Secrets of the World's Best Performing Companies.
